The upside down worldview of the UN

The UN serves as an effective metaphor for the hollow nature of the leftist worldview generally.  It routinely looks the force for good in this world - let's use "Western civilization" as shorthand for this - and excoriates it for its very virtues.  Then it holds up supposedly beleagured elements of humanity - elements that actually, through their own anti-dignity, anti-freedom, anti-life modus operandi, have wrought destruction within their own ranks, as well as upon those portions of humanity interested in advancement and living well - without bothering to substantiate its claims for their victim status.

The latest example of this is the official conclusion of the United Nations Relief and Works committee's meeting the other day that, yes, Gaza's future looks bleak, but that is because of Israel's stance.

You just have to proceeed in this world on the basis of what you know to be right and true and understand that there will be those with nothing better to do than try to thwart you.
